Reporter – We have here on the line direct from Venice, Victoria Brown. As you know, she's one of our best theatre actresses, and right now she and her company are on tour playing Macbeth. Good evening, Victoria! Victoria – Good evening. I'm talking to you from my dressing room, because I'm on stage in fifteen minutes. Reporter – Right, it'll be a short interview. Have you ever been on tour before? Victoria – I've been a couple of times, actually. Reporter – Which city have you been more successful in? Victoria – Last week we were in Budapest and we had very good criticism. We haven't been to Paris yet, but I'm sure we'll be a great hit there. Reporter – Tell me about some of the theatres you've performed in. Victoria – The most important thing is not the theatre, but the audience. What I really like is the sound of people clapping. I'm happy when our work is worthy of the greatest praise. Reporter – I'm sure your tour will continue being a box-office success, and I hope you aren't superstitious because, as you may know, today is Friday 13th. Victoria – I have never been superstitious, and I'm looking forward to going on working with my company successfully. Reporter – Thanks for your time and congratulations.
